The UE mathematics programs are distinctive with a curriculum that allows for early exposure to upper level courses and the opportunity to explore multiple career paths.

Bachelor of Science with a major in Applied Mathematics

This degree program offers a firm foundation in applied mathematics by combining a rigorous program of study in mathematics with a concentration in one or more disciplines in which mathematical tools are used to solve real-world problems. Areas of application include actuarial science, business administration, cognitive science, computer science, economics, and the physical or biological sciences.

Area of Application — Actuarial Science
Actuarial science prepares students to work with insurance companies in the areas of risk management, pension funds, health coverage, and death benefits. UE is one of a select group of colleges with the Society of Actuaries - Undergraduate Advanced designation. Students in this area are highly encouraged to complete a professional internship. Course work and preparation is designed to support three - four actuarial exams.

Bachelor of Science in Pre-doctoral Mathematics

Pre-doctoral mathematics is a highly selective program for students who intend to pursue graduate study in mathematics leading to a doctoral degree. It involves undergraduate research and a curriculum that includes many courses typically offered only at the graduate level. Only two students are accepted per year.

Bachelor of Arts with a major in Mathematics

This curriculum is designed for students seeking exposure to advanced mathematics as part of a broad-based liberal arts curriculum. It is particularly suitable for students interested in pursuing graduate study in mathematics or related disciplines.

Mathematics Minor

This program is designed to equip students in other disciplines with quantitative reasoning, analytical skills and the ability to work in a problem solving environment.

Requirements: Mathematics 221, 222; at least four mathematics courses numbered 300 or above; Engineering 390 and Physics 305 may be applied towards this total.

Bachelor of Science in Statistics and Data Science

This degree program is designed for students pursuing a career as a data scientist or statistician. It combines cutting-edge techniques in data science with mathematically rigorous statistics. Statistics courses in the curriculum are project-driven, with an emphasis on the analysis of real-world data using statistical methods implemented by powerful statistical software. This program prepares students for a career in business or industry utilizing statistics or data science but is also sufficiently rigorous to prepare a student for graduate work in a related field. Learn more about the Statistics and Data Science program.

Statistics and Data Science Minor

The minor in Statistics and Data Science is designed to equip students in other disciplines with the quantitative, technical, and communication skills necessary to advance in their field of study. The program provides opportunities for students to apply their statistical knowledge to their discipline and a variety of real-world problems.

Requirements: Statistics 266, 267, 300, at least 3 semester hours of computer programming courses specified by the Department of Mathematics and two 300- or 400- level applied statistics courses.
